      Hello , 
      I am getting 404 error in some pages of my wordpress site http://engineerbabu.com/ .
      Those pages are permanently removed.

      Is there any plugin to fix this prob or anyway so that google will not crawl these pages.

        Can you point out the specific pages? (Which page it redirects from, and where to.)

            Hi,

            If you are seeing the 404 errors in the moz crawl report then these pages are likely still being linked to internally, so it would be good to correct any outdated internal links. You can check where the pages are being linked from by downloading the crawl report and checking the relevant column.

            If the links are external then you can 301 redirect the old pages to the most relevant new pages using a 301 plugin. There are a few of them you can check out here.

              • To avoid errors in our Moz crawl, we removed subdomains from our host. (First we tried 301 redirects, also listed as errors.) Now we have backlinks all over the web that are broken. How bad is this, from a pagerank standpoint?
